I don't know how strap you are for money, but sometimes volunteering can get you a foot in the door? Why not contact some voluntary sector agencies in your area for volunteering opportunities. Once you gain the experience you might find it easier to get a sicoal work assistant post until you're ready to do your DipSW.

Have you checked with the General Social Care Council? Maybe they can help. Also check on Socialwork Student UK website as there may be others in the same boat.

Hang in there.

Try offering your services voluntarily, very few places will refuse you working for free they need all the help they can get. It will also show your are serious about wanting to work in the field.
